What we serve, dish by dish

Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg.
Film set catering for your shoot in Deddington
On a long shoot day near Deddington, a hot lunch on time matters. A hog roast works well at base: we roast from early and carve on the call. Popular choices include new potatoes, hog roast rolls and a vegan option, and we are frequently booked for long days on set and location days.
Near Deddington, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so hot food at base is a big help. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.
